Want to make a white male conservative really mad? I mean REALLY mad?
Call him a "big government conservative". I've noticed that nothing makes them more white-hot angry than that label.

And why not?

They favor sweeping new government spending on the military and law enforcement, more restrictive laws against abortion, pornography between consenting adults and "seditious" speech that too harshly criticizes Baby Bush and "his" war. They also favor more punitive immigration enforcement, expanded government wiretapping powers, harsher drug laws (and expanded police powers to enforce them), laws that make homosexual sex a crime and restriction of television programming they deem "obscene" or "anti-American".

1. AMEN! These people are some sort of crazy socialist-fascist hyrid...
kind of like a human-animal hybrid.

:rofl:

(BTW, I've given that comment from the SOTU some thought, do you think King G was talking about people who like grow ears on the backs of mice and stuff like that? It's fun to make fun of it, but that kind of stuff is truly disturbing...)

13. Maybe, but I wouldn't call it disturbing
Cloning a replacement organ for someone who needs one will be a gigantic medical leap forward.

7. Maybe
It's just that I've never actually met one in person. I'se seen them on TV, but I've never met or seen one in person before.

6. Calling them a "borrow & spend conservatives"
is another good one. They get all huffy.

I haven't referred to the RW'ers as big spenders lately. I think I'll start to bang that drum again while all this lying/wire-tapping stuff is happening to give the fence-sitters another reason to think Blue in 2006.

9. LOL!
That's awesome!

After someone identifies themselves as a Bush supporter, just nonchalantly say, "Oh...so you're one of those big-government conservatives. Interesting."

Then, watch the designer label on their cotton sweater get all steamed up.

That truly is great. If DU was still giving hearts away, I would have added another one to your collection.

21. Isn't that funny?
It sure points out some weird biases, doesn't it? Not that I necessarily disagree about the former myself (to be perfectly honest) but I'm also not threatened or overly disgusted by the latter.

16. Works for me, but I will also continue to call him a bootlicking toady...
for some reason, that also seems to enrage the big-shouldered-independent-thinking-who-owes-nothing-to-no-one-man-of-destiny.
Fuck 'em. It's the truth.

19. I always tell 'em they better start learning to "habla espanol"
They hate to be reminded that it is their god Bush who keeps letting all those Mexican people in.

Your idea is good, too!

23. Quote Jesus
They hate it that he actually SAID things.

Vistied the Fundy-In-Laws church once. Not one quote from Jesus during the entire service.
